Schwarzenegger Will Appeal CA Video Game Ruling

Although gamers were high-fiving and game industry types were taking a victory lap following news that U.S. District Court Judge Ronald Whyte struck down California's 2005 video game law, GamePolitics has just received word that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will appeal today's ruling.

hes a damn uneducated retart who can't talk english properly in california's head position, what's next dave chappelle running for prez, some body please shut that guy up? then again we have an uneducated retart in this countrys highest position "buck fush"

Yeah, because John Kerry would've made us all happy, right? I mean...the man did support YOUR views...no matter WHAT YOU STOOD FOR!

Maybe he's not the best public speaker, but the man does things because he knows they're the best for America...and not what will win him the favor of the people.

Yes, I'll get crap for this...but what did you think would happen? When someone actually finds out for themselves the truth about the government and doesn't just listen to the liberally-biased media...everyone else will hate that individual because he or she is "wrong".

The man's views are strictly set. He said what he did was not a good example for the youth of the nation or the nation as a whole. Do you guys even know what politics means???

As much as I love Arnold, I don't support pro-choice.

I know what you guys mean, but you need to look into it before you post.

Sorry to seem hostile...I don't mean to be. I just want gaming to be known as an art and no one is bringing that up. Who cares if our favorite action hero is screwing us over? WE ALL DO!!! Then, do something about it!

We're at an unfortunate end here, guys! Gaming is the new METAL MUSIC! The only problem is...most gamers are LAZY AS FRICK!!! Can at least FIVE of you get together and stop people like Jack Thompson and Hillary Clinton from destroying gaming!!!???

His views are inconsequential. He was the principle purveyor of over two decades of well known cinema action and violence, and became one of the biggest celebrities EVER through it. The fact that he is the governor of California is on the back of his violence depicting success, without it he would not be in a position of power to voice his opposition against that same thing. That, is irony.

If he wanted to stop real life violence, more power to him. But to even entertain for a second that he has a right to attack anything regarding the violence in video games is just ridiculous; Children are much more exposed to violence in cinema then they are through games. Yet he doesn't go after the movie industry, why? California needs it of course, games are meaningless really to their economy. The fact that more kids are exposed to R rated content either in theaters or on television more frequently and readily than they could purchase a game with a similar level of graphic violence seems to escape his wisdom. I'm sure its by mistake.

With any luck, the kid will stumble upon one of the governator's own master works to warp his little mind.

the only reason games get the B*LLSH*T they do is cause in Washington DC. there is no game payoffs in the form of kickbacks. movies,music,guns you name it has lobyist and kickbacks working for them. games dont have the money to spend on this kind of protection so people like hillary clit-on get upset that she has less money in the bank and wants you pig's clay azz. thats why its important to tell public officals to shove it up there azz's and if they try this kind of sh*t they wont be in office much longer!

Another reason videogames are popular political fodder is because many videogamers don't have the right to vote, or simply don't vote. This maneuver also plays well to the older generations (who do vote) who don't trust and don't like videogames and believe that this is a way to protect children and teens.

Well not sure I'm following this right. So correct me guys if I'm wrong. Arnold is trying to make sure you have to be 18 or older to buy mature games? Am I correct so far? Then whats the problem in PA I've been asked for ID when I buy mature games. So isnt this law already in place?
